there's definitely heaps of processed guitar parts @avclub-e02f170d9031d2f84fefd2f59c16a285:disqus

Bliss is an excellent film, nice choice Tool-man !

I prefer Chairs Missing
*sniffs*

also, two names; Harrogate (in Suttree) and Blevins (All the Pretty Horses), two amazing, hilarious and poignant side-characters of McCarthy's who I will recall with a grin forever

ah I logged in to share the same thing; I read, or rather mainly listened, to all of Cormac McCarthy's books this year - there's some reeeeally good audio book readings, some of the best work I've heard … bought an ol'-fashioned hardcopy of Blood Meridian, cuz that shit is amazing ..

Gotta agree.
They have other great great albums, but Revolver, man ….

Be polite.

it is such an elegant film, I really love it.

I think I prefer Les vacances de Monsieur Hulot, I could put that on loop and watch it all day, beautifully shot, gently amusing, oddly relaxing ..

Do you dig graves ?

Crop rotation in the 14th century was *con-sidewably* more widespread …

A-

Richard Lloyd's solo in See No Evil is a thing of beauty.
I've read a quote in which he describes his approach to methodically working out his solos, and every single lick and note on that particular solo is tasty stuff.

Adrian Belew's 2 solo's on the Great Curve are incredible, and other-worldly. (I'm gonna listen to it right now !) - he injects so much ferocity into his sections of an already incredible, action-packed song - the Great Curve is a groove in one chord but Belew manages to find every tambre and hidden pocket of weird…

best version of Buckingham's solo on "I'm So Afraid" has to be this one from the wildly uneven 1982 Mirage tour video - my Mum had a vhs copy, I fucking hated it for months, then one day I just suddenly succumbed to Buckingham's peculiar brand of coked-up nuttiness and guitar pyrotechnics - he absolutely kills it…

I saw an interview in which he described how he recorded that solo in a series of little edits as he composed it - I've seen footage of him ripping a very close approximation live though, so it's not like he couldn't/can't play the thing himself …

I detested Lethem's Fear of Music, it was horrible.
'The boy in the room', Jesus wept ..

I feel as though all of my senses have been raped simultaneously.

Another big fan of Karla Crome here; I first saw her in Hit & Miss, the odd show set in Ireland starring Chloe Sevigny as an Irish pre-op tranny assassin (really) - when I saw that she'd been cast in Misfits I wasn't sure what to make of it, as her character on Hit & Miss was so dour and unglamorous - she's definitely…

well fair enough then !
